My daughter has attended Play and Learn at Clifton Place for about a year now (PreK3) and I can't say enough good things about the teachers and director, Mr. Hoffman. All of the teachers are so kind, and they clearly enjoy working together -- it's so nice to see them lift each other up and celebrate birthdays, milestones, etc. together. Mr. Hoffman is very involved and knows each of the students -- whenever I had a concern, it was address quickly and professionally. I am especially appreciative of all his support in getting our daughter the help she needs to be successful. Special shoutout to Ms Otero, Ms Rennane, Ms Tillano and Ms Sara !!!!
This is the best school for PK 3. The school is very clean (specially the toilet), organized, and has its own playground. The teachers are friendly and good at training your kid to be independent. This school will prepare your kid for PK 4. Too bad they don’t have PK4. We would love to stay in this school. They have so many activities including 2 field trips. It was a memorable experience for my kid and for moms too. :)
Absolutely worst Pre-K3 school. Mrs. Trady and Mrs. Collins constantly yell at kids. My daughter said she was spanked and hit on the head by both teachers. My daughter was constantly told "I am not happy with you". This school is despicable. There are no controls that prevent abuse from happening at this school. I was dismissed when I told the administration about the abuse. The administration is terrible. My daughter was much happier when I pulled her out of the school.
Disrespectful staff, and poor quality of care and service to the children
Para el año 2023/2024 mi hijo asistió al programa PreK 3 en esta escuela y estoy totalmente agradecida por la excelente experiencia que nos brindaron aquí. Tanto las profesoras y sus asistentes como también la parte administrativa. La profesora Sánchez y la asistente Muhammad fueron bastante amorosas, cuidadosas y muy profesionales. Las actividades y tareas que desarrollaron fueron oportunas, divertidas y muy aportadoras para mi hijo. La escuela nos brindó la flexibilidad que yo necesitaba al ser la primera vez que yo no estaba cerca de mi hijo. Muchas gracias
